Cousins Weekend

Last weekend we went to Aunt Suzy and Uncle Clyde's house for a weekend with the little girl cousins. Sadly, Mary Jane was sick so she and Emma weren't able to come and we really missed them but are already making plans for another weekend of fun.

We arrived on Friday afternoon and Suzy and Clyde fixed us an amazing dinner featuring one of my family's favorites...fried okra!

After dinner the girls played and then close to bedtime Clyde sat down and played some songs on the piano. Emmie had been playing in the back of the house and about 5 seconds after Clyde started playing she popped up next to him. She loves music so much!

Kim, Abby, and Riley stayed at Suzy and Clyde's house as well and Abby and Riley were so sweet and let Emmie tuck them in at bedtime and naptime.

On Saturday we had a big, delicious breakfast and then hung around the house. The girls played with the dress up clothes, sang, danced, played with playdoh, played many games of hide and seek, played with bubbles.

Mammy (their great-grandmother) came for lunch along with Uncle Allen and Aunt Sonja.

After naps we headed to the park to ride the carousel and the train. The carousel was gorgeous and everyone had lots of fun.

We then headed to a different, less crowded, park to play on the playground while Suzy and Clyde took Mammy back. After the girls played for a bit we headed back to Suzy and Clyde's for a delicious dinner. (Can you tell we ate well!)

We headed home Sunday after breakfast and my girls were so sad to leave Suzy and Clyde's house. They just love them and Suzy and Clyde are always so sweet to the girls.

Ruthie played cards with the girls after naptime.

Ruthie got lots of snuggles!
